Yes, but anything you steal from the greedy Corporations will be passed onto the general population. The Corps never lose. So in essence you too would be exploiting the common man ????

Nah. Most have huge loss funds factored into their budgets. Hundreds of millions. Zero impact on consumers or shareholders.

It's not worth it for 20 baht.  I would want to get a minimum of 100,000 before doing anything dodgy and not in Thailand.  I would only steal in the UK because the prison's are better than my house.

My eyes aren’t so great, but he lookss like he could be Thai to me. How is everyone so sure he is a foreigner?  Arms are kinda big for a Thai. Black hair. Did the owner and media automatically assume (again) that Thais don’t commit crimes?  Pretty petty offense, nonetheless. Thai coins. Lol.  Inside job?  Who knows. If he is a foreigner, probably came back after he realized he got an unfair exchange rate and wanted a tiny bit of money back. A tiny bit! (Not to condine steaking at all, so don’t attack me guys)

It's only safe to steal from the government.  They're too stupid to keep track of it and when they realize they've been robbed It's 2 years later. IE: The United States Government.

A report in the Daily Mail today, a woman got 3 years in jail for stealing 490,000 Pounds. Crime pays in Britain. But 800 baht, idiot.

I have heard about coin boxes but this is seems to be the mother of all coin boxes with that much money in it, anyway, a lesson to learned there isn't it?

Sounds like a lot. What kind of coin box; of the business, or for charity? If the latter, perhaps it had some 50s and 20s in it.
